Man, that looks great! I hope you can see all that polish and chrome once it is in the engine bay.

It would be cool if you had a powdercoater, and you could powdercoat the alternator casing in chrome. I just bought one, and am puting together my system. I bought 15 colors.

By the way, LOVE that Vette in the background. Is that a 1960 model?

Ricer chrome water pump pulley makes your car slower danny, same reason I'm not putting those chrome valve covers on my motor.

Hey Tecni, would love to see how this is coming! Looks great so far.

I have a question for you. What are you using for management and wiring? Are you going standalone or just using the vh ecu and wiring? Do you know how much the CAN-bus system effects things in the G35 when doing a swap like this? I've heard you can lose your radio, hvac, other electronics in the vehicle when switching to a different motor because of the CAN system.

Because both of the guys with the projects seemed to stop posting in the various forums. I have no clue if either one of these was finished or what the end result was.

Shame!
